After my Easter holidays...

I have just arrived back from a lovely week in the UK visiting family - whilst there I decorated quite a few candles for Easter, like the one above - all you need is a pretty serviette, a candle, grease-proof paper and a heat gun...

I also picked up quite a lot of crafty supplies...

The first thing I decided to have a go with was the Spellbinders die which cuts and embosses, using it for the Mojo Monday Contest

with the following sketch

This is what I made:

I used three of my shaving foam and food colouring backgrounds and a golden doiley plus card base and matting papers in yellows. The embossed medallion was given height using dimensionals. A stamped sentiment and a few gems finished the card.
